Are there any instructions on how to clean the head of epilator? Qs2. is it removable?

You can detach the head to rinse it out-it's also wet/dry safe, so you can rinse the epilator itself, too. It does come with a little brush, though, for quick cleans.

Judy, unless you have a "very, very" high pain threshold, I definitely would advise against using the epilator on your face. This appliance literally pulls the hair out, one by one. Using it on your extremities can be painful enough: using it on your face may be unbearable.

It's good, braun has the best epilators. The only thing is that in last products it has a razor and you could change it also put and take off accessories and in this model just de exfoliant stuff. For me I give it a 7. Good luck.

The cap/cover that guides the epilation process comes off. However, the head that has the tweezers does not come off. The way I choose to clean it is by rotating, stopping, and brushing off the hair until it's clean. Then, I sanitize it by letting only the tweezers rotate in a cap-full of rubbing alcohol. I do not submerge it in the alcohol; I dip it in to where the rubbing alcohol only reaches the tweezers.

This is battery operated. However, I didn't have much luck using it. It didn't seem to grab my "mustache" hairs at all. I ended up giving it away to AmVets. I have yet to find a good facial epilator.

The trimmer end is not removable. They supply a small brush and instructions on how to clean in the manual. http://www.manualslib.com/manual/125350/Philips-Norelco-Nt9110-60.html?page=7#manual Page 7

I've never used the epilator head except once. It was too painful. I don't notice a significant difference in time between shaving.

I don't know as I threw out the box and paper work.Have you 1. cleaned and oiled the blades after using 2. Taken the blade off and cleaned it and the white shaft that moves the blade and if you have removed the blade have you reinstalled it correctly as instructed. I have fine hair and and use it every other day around my ears, sideburns and mustache and clean and oil the blade each time.Also once a week I remove the blade and clean inside. With this maintenance I have not had any problems and am very pleased with the trimmer. Best of Luck David PS The 2 screws holding the blade to the trimmer can easily strip.

If you have coated the components with epoxy before you used it the first time, you can basically rinse it off with water and soap with no problems (see my other comment for instructions). If you used it out of the box, the lens cap is not very well sealed and the seal can be knocked loose when you are banging it around in a pipe, so I would use a damp cloth to clean this off. The plastic box in the center of the 50' wire is not sealed, so that should also not be dunked in water. Again use a damp cloth. Once it is all cleaned up, I would seal everything with epoxy before putting it in another drain. Other comments on this device report failures after dunking in water.

yes it can be removed to be cleaned. But to change out on to a different head it will not work.

I usually just breathe on it and then polish it of with a towel. Works great! If the kids were using it with jelly fingers *sigh* I use a damp cloth to clean it off (without any cleaner or soap).

I clean the tip of the handheld unit using a very small cleaning brush that came with a hair trimming kit. It's perfect... and I use it to clean the tip after each use. Otherwise, I can see the tip getting really dirty and clogged with the dead skin that's been suctioned off. If you don't have such a cleaning brush, perhaps you can use some sort of small cosmetic-type brush with slightly firm bristles. In addition, I also use a cottom pad with alcohol to disinfect the tip of the handheld piece, every other time I use my machine. I hope this response helps.

Wipe it down with a damp cloth the tank, hose and mask with vinger and water soak. Make sure to remove the head band

Yes, it does replace a razor. I use the epilator head for some areas, and I use the razor for other areas that are too sensitive to use the epilator. Also, the epilator works best with hairs that are not very long. If you are just starting to use this unit for the first time, or have not been able to use it for a while, you may want to use the razor head first, then after several days, when the hairs are just starting to grow out, try using the epilator head. I've been using this brand for a number of years now, after having gone through at least 4 other similar epilators made by other people. This is the best brand of them all, by far.

If I remember correctly, the instructions said to clean it with a "soft" cleanser...something like soft scrub.
